It's amazing how many people come into Sans bar and they are...looking for a space that is not just about recovery but also about how to live the rest of their life.
Imagine a place where you can enjoy a night out without the pressure of alcohol. Chris Marshall, a mental health advocate and founder of Sans Bar, is on a mission to create such spaces. In this episode of 'Recovery Revolution Live', Chris shares his inspiring journey from substance use counselor to the visionary behind Sans Bar, an alcohol-free community in Austin, Texas. Sober since 2007, Chris witnessed firsthand the struggles people face in staying sober after treatment.
This inspired him to establish Sans Bar in 2017, believing that everyone deserves a safe and inclusive environment to connect authentically with others. Sans Bar isn't just a bar; it's a classroom on how to live a fulfilling sober life. Chris emphasizes the importance of community in recovery and how being around like-minded individuals can significantly impact one's sobriety journey.
One unique aspect of Sans Bar is its focus on non-alcoholic drinks, offering patrons the chance to enjoy fancy beverages without the alcohol. Chris discusses breaking down stigmas within the recovery community and the need for multiple recovery pathways. He passionately talks about making sober spaces accessible and affordable for everyone, especially women who may not feel safe in traditional environments.
This episode is a heartfelt conversation about creating spaces that support not just recovery but also a joyful, sober lifestyle. Tune in to hear Chris Marshall's vision for a more inclusive world where sobriety is celebrated.
